Today is the day...right? Whoopee!
I want to F9->F10 hopefully without downloading the dvd iso.
Livecd instructions I already have
There was a link on the Fedora site, I don't have it handy.
It explained what it did and how to invoke it.
I used it to upgrade from F7 to F9 in one step. It worked
flawlessly, leaving me a few configuration files to examine.
It is like the upgrade option of yum, except all of manual
options are handled automatically. All of the Fedora 7
files that had correspondent packages in Fedora 9 had been
updated to those latest packages.
As someone pointed out here, there is a (potential) issue
with security. The packages are checked, but the
preparation is not. I think it was susceptible to a man in
the middle attack, or a corrupted server. You have to judge
whether that is too much risk for you.
Hope that helps.
